How to Find the Right Home Remodeler

You’re ready to transform your kitchen or bathroom. For a long time, you’ve been saving up so that when the time came, you could hire the best home remodeler around. Well, that time is now. You have the money; now you need the home improvement expert. To find the right remodeler for your kitchen or bathroom remodel, consider these tips from our team at Gemini Wallcovering & Renovations, Inc. (And if you’re in the Alexandria, VA, area, be sure to keep us in the running!)

1. Gather recommendations.

Do you have trusted friends or family members who recently remodeled? Ask them about their experiences, and take note of both their pros and cons. You may also want to check out online customer reviews to keep top-rated remodelers in mind. Based on the referrals and reviews, you can put together a list of potential contractors.

2. Do some investigating.

Check out the home remodelers’ websites. Get a feel for their range of services, check out examples of their work, and be sure to research their credentials. You may also want to take note of their years of experience or how long they’ve been in operation. That can often give you a feel for how well they’re established in the community (but it also doesn’t have to be a make-or-break factor).

3. Gather quotes.

Hopefully after doing some research, you can narrow down your options. From there, ask for written estimates from each home remodeler. Be sure to get as much detail as possible so that you can compare quotes.

4. Consider your options.

Lay all your quotes out, and read through them thoroughly. Ask any follow-up questions with individual remodelers as they arise. You want to consider not only the rate, but also their availability, workmanship, materials used, and whether they subcontract the work out.

5. Go with your gut.

After you’ve considered all the home-remodeling experts, go with the one you feel most comfortable with. This team will be in your home day in and day out for a while, so you want to choose someone you can trust.
